The crime was caught by a CCTV camera in the area, according to ABS-CBN News. In the footage, the suspect who was wearing a jacket can be seen shooting Abdullah then running away towards the main road.

People in the area tried to run after the gunman but to no avail.

A witness said that the suspect removed his clothes while running away and, in the process, accidentally shot a salesperson on her calf when he dropped his gun, the same ABS-CBN News report states. The salesperson is currently recuperating in a hospital.

Recovered from the crime scene were six empty bullet shell casings and two slugs.

Authorities are still investigating the suspect’s motive but have found that the victim had no known enemies.

However, Abdullah Samsoden Monib, the victim’s friend, told The Philippine Star that the latter had been receiving threats from alleged fundamentalist groups.
